I came across this post and found it amazing how the Seahawks nearly unanimously made every top-5 list. Even living in DC, I'm completely indifferent to the Redskins one way or the other. I guess I've enjoyed them being such an easy-out in the playoffs, though.

Haha...I'd be pissed too if my team kept losing to the same team in the playoffs. I wasn't around for the Sean Taylor stuff but if any of that stuff I don't blame them for hating us. That's some messed up ish to talk bad about the dead

I'm so entertained by that thread... I love the fact that "they beat us in the playoffs and they're so overrated" in the same statement. Isn't that basically just saying, "As a Redskins fan, I believe they are overrated, yet I'm absolutely stupid to equate the strength of my team as obviously being lesser than theirs because they beat us three times in the playoffs.... what does that make us?!?"

Ehhh... If I was a foreskin fan I would hate the Seahawks too, but some of their reasoning is pretty skewed.

The Hawks have ended their playoff runs.They cant hang with the physical part of the Hawks.Sherman and Browner most likely cause them heartburn.

Those are good reasons.

Stupid ones? Thinking that the fanbase should have allowed the Skins a pass in the playoffs because of Taylor. Sorry about Taylor, but we don't owe them anything.

The overrated comments. The Hawks finished the season on a great run themselves. They talk like Niner fans as if that game last year was over because they scored 14 points. Like all the others that came after Wilson, in the end, he figured them out. Redskin fans are lucky it wasn't 34-14.

They trolled this site with comments about Fletcher owning Lynch and he schooled the veteran like a rookie.

I enjoyed knowing that the Skins were the playoff matchup. After hosting a playoff game on that dirt bike track of a field they deserve to lose.

The only concern I have and I mean only is that Bevell will get cute and pass even though Lynch is gaining yardage. 1/30/2015 - loaf

I was around for it and it was so blown out of proportion by Redskin fans that it was ridiculous. What I remember is they were all saying they were going to beat us by 21 points in honor of Taylors #21. They were talking about him like he was a Saint and they were going to win because of him. a few Seahawk fans just mentioned a few of the true mistakes that he made in his life, pointing out that he wasn't the saint he was being portrayed as, and mentioned that his passing would have absolutely no effect on the game... and the REdskins fans just all ran with it that we were dissing him and disrespecting the dead and all that crap. It really was ridiculous on their part.

There was also talk of some of their fans being mistreated at one of the games in Seattle, and I don't know if it was true or not, but it sure seemed to be embellished quite a bit.

I went to sign up for there forum because I wanted to actually post a nice comment, showing them that there wrong about hawk fans.

When I went to sign up, you have to literally answer this question "what is rg3's jersey #?"...I stopped after that point...They think we are obsessed with Wilson, but got dam RG3 is like Jesus to them

This is so blown out of proportion, it's ridiculous. Redskins fans literally took any criticism about Sean Taylor (including his on-field performance) as being racism, and reacted accordingly. A lot of Redskins fans are idiots.

Ok, after perusing through that thread a bit, I no longer want a bye week in the playoffs. I want to win the division with 11-12 wins and have the Redskins travel to our house where we beat the living hell out of them 47-9.

It's hard to care about Redskins fans in kind. Their franchise is garbage and the only good thing about their team in the last twenty years, RGIII, will surely be mishandled by Shanahan and blow out both of his knees in the next two years. I wouldn't put them in a top fifteen teams that I even think about unless we're toe-tagging them in the playoffs again.

To be wildly hated is a good thing, it means that teams fear or respect us and the fan bases of said teams feel were a threat to their success. Enjoy it and laugh, we as fans of the Seahawks have been a long time in the by most fanbases irrelevant for a long time. Now were the up and comers with an attitude and something to back it up, I hope we can follow thru with the ultimate success and become what we hated from the Patriots and the Packers and 49ers, the next fairweather fan base stop, with that comes the endorsements and recognition of our players and staff as one that knows what the hell we are doing. The media will be getting in line to get sloppy seconds after the NFL markets the hell out of our players. Wilson will get the Tom Brady Aaron Rodgers treatment, Legion of Boom will be spread across the country in posters and likenesses. Beastmode will be on every kids wall that dreams of being a Running Back.

Yeah being hated will be nice.....................

To Be P/C or Not P/C That is the Question..........Seahawks kick Ass !!!! Check your PM's, Thank you for everything Radish RIP My Friend. Member of the 38 club.

It was hurt before that game, Shanahan already has the blame on him anyway, he and his history of running a player into the ground needs no arguement since you have Elway, Davis, Portis to bare witness and stat they were playing hurt and over used and got hurt.

The Hawks use to be an insignificant team but by all indications that is history. Fans bases such as the Redskins, Giants, Cowboys and the like feel so entitled. They just can't cope with being continually ass kicked by the Hawks. Drives them insane.

" Remember the men and women in uniform that have signed that blank check for us."

Funny stuff. I wonder if we did a thread on our side whether a lot of us would even include the Skins in our Top 5 most hated teams. What I am really surprised about is how there's a lot of them that hate us more than their own division rivals.

Steelers would be way up there, so I can see why the Skins have a high degree of disdain for the Seahawks. They took away a dream run for their legendary coach and fallen hero.

And some of the smack our folks talked during the Sean Taylor playoffs was extremely messed up. The site owner and mods had to clean up the thread in the Smack Shack. Was not a good look but it happens.

My thoughts exactly!

I can't stand it when fans make these ridiculous assertions about the hawks that have absolutely no facts to back 'em up and then there's like 1,000 replies reinforcing the original baseless statement. It just makes me think they don't know much about football - which is fine - but man, put a lid on it if you can't back up what you're saying.. I've been lurking on these boards WAAAY longer than I've been posting but I never would have signed up if I didn't feel like the overwhelming majority of people on these boards back up their opinions with facts and/or relevant observations.

I couldn't in good conscience make some absurd statement about an opposing team with no facts to back it up b/c I know that I would get an earful from the rest of you guys if I did so.

What makes me mad is when opposing fans refuse to acknowledge the Seahawks as being a legitimate contender based on nothing other than inherent bias (which I'll freely admit I'm guilty of) and EVERYONE on their board goes along with it w/o any sort of healthy debate or acknowledgement of potential inaccuracies . I mean, I HATE the 9ers and every other team in the NFL (with the exception of the Ravens, I don't know why, lol...) but I'll acknowledge fact that the 9ers have a good team - I hate their coach, I hate their QB, and I hate their fans - but they play good football..

I know there are always going to be exceptions to this but man are they few and far between..

If we're over-rated, what does that make you?

I too love this comment. Fills my heart with LOLZ.

Their crazy devotion to 21 is pretty ridiculous too. C'mon, dude was pretty good and he died at a tragically young age, but they carry on like he cured the lepers and pray to him like he's football Jesus. Stop being so cray cray. Dude was hardly a saint. That's like if we started praying to LeRoy Hill if he died young. Cha..... ryte....

But yeah. Foreskin fans are funny.

FREE PEHAWK

I feel steam pouring out of my ears reading this. Hate a team for knocking you out of the Play-offs??? Sounds like a personal problem not ours, cheaters how? Idiotic, Redskins are a team that 90% I don't even think about but we make top 5? You think Bears or Steelers fan think about us? No

It actually wasn't any of our posters. It was Matt Wolf from Seahawks huddle that spouted off about Taylor and the entire fan base went batshit on us.

I just found out last spring that Anguish was doing site work for Matt Wolf and Matty disappeared as usual and left Anguish to take all the heat.

I grew up in Maryland, watching the Skins (Ill always hate the Cowboys most out of any team). But Ive been a die hard Hawks fan since I remember seeing them for the first time on TV when I was 9 (1985). This thread is classic, All my old high school friends are Skins fans, and they have much more class than any of these posters.

Someone said it earlier, the Skins wouldnt even make any Hawks fans top 5 most hated team, because we are better than them hands down.

Hahaha, so much butthurt. The fact that anyone thinks Wilson doesn't compare to RG3 (Wilson is better, in my opinion. Especially because he didn't get hurt.) is just hilarious to me. Lots of terrible opinions.

Overrated! (They beat us in our last three playoff appearances...) Wilson is inferior to RGIII, and shouldn't even be mentioned in the same paragraph! (They beat us in the playoffs...)Carroll cheats! (Carroll is lucky...) Overhyped! (They kicked us out of the every playoff run we had in the last decade...)

It is pretty darned amusing. I don't care that they hate us as fans, and I don't care what their reasons are for hating us. Every team has its class fans, and every team has its douchebags. Anyone not intelligent enough to realize that belongs in the second category.

49ers webzone: Win or lose, i hope you injure Sherman. Like a serious career ending injury. I don't want him to get paid.49ers webzone: noise should not be the overwhelming reason a team is favored. they need to spray noise-damping foam onto the ceiling of that place.
